Anchor a Cell to another one in Google sheet

I create a spreadsheet(y) populated by a query from another spreadsheet (z)

The cells From A to D are populated by Query order by name.

Something like

A

Acme
Boo
Foo

from cell D to G I create formulas to generate a value for each cell.

something like

A         D

Acme      Myformula1
Boo       Myformula2
Foo       Myformula3

When add a value to main spreadsheet (z), the spreadsheet(y) with a query update its cells. For instance, I add AABB as value, the spreadsheet(z) will be:

A         D

AABB      Myformula1
Acme      Myformula2
Boo       Myformula3
Foo   

It's wrong because Myformula1 is for Acme, myFormula2 is for Boo and so on.

is it possible to anchor myFormula1 to Acme?

Thanks

The best way is to write your formula on spreadsheet (z) and use VLOOKUP from spreadsheet (y)
